thanks

would rather do what scott has done and build it up myself, looks better as a unit that a "trolley" as i would say....

is there much gap between the top of the contico and the wood ? obviously some for ventilation..

scott if you could give me a rough idea on how you built it would be nice, like just one of the sizes that the box fits in?

Dave, I'll try and take some photos and measurements tonight and let you know the full details tomorrow.

cool thanks scott looks great Smile

i wanted to build a wood framed one, like your previous picture, because i think it looks much better... would like just to know like the size of the tubs and the measurement of the outside of the unit (just 1 of them). also do you have heat mats on every level controlled by a stat Smile

You can use PAX frames from ikea with shelves etc to fit the Komplement boxes.

http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?topcategoryId=15597&catalogId=10103&storeId=7&productId=72571&langId=-20&categoryId=15857&chosenPartNumber=70103995

You can get a 100x58x77cm cabinet for £32 and 4 shelves for £20.
It should hold 4 really usefull boxes and 2 conticos or 3 Komplement boxes or various other combinations. Then you could stack to make higher as needed. You have a choice of colours aswell.
worth looking into. It could be an easy and cheap racking system??
thanks
mike
